You have got to be kidding me...a bug where I got stuck inside the barricade switches of Ironclaw, but the robots could still

...attack me. I revived to see if it would get me out of that barricade but I was still stuck. I think this was reported a long time ago on another thread, but I'm not sure. I lost all energy and time, and I was about to fight the Roarmulus Twins.

It's the part where you hit the switches on both sides where you open the way for the missiles to hit the blocks and then open the way for the switches and you fight 3 robots. It's right before the elevator of the twins.

Here is what I'm talking about:

I don't know what happened, maybe the robots hit the switch. They should fix that so no one else wastes their time getting to the final stretch. I lost about 80 energy; the last 10 ce from the 2nd revive that was suppose to go to the final boss, which isn't much of a problem for me percentage wise out of the times I've fought him expertly.

But is there anyway I can be compensated for this? At least get my 80 ce back if I'm not going to be magically taken to the same depth at the same location with 10 ce back? Cause this isn't a trial and error issue here. This is something that wasn't suppose to happen and was out of the player's control. I would at least want my 80 ce back to do it all over again because I lost the chance to get more bark modules.

Sigh...my username is Ranzoh.

The loot you got from going

The loot you got from going down to that depth more than enough covers the CE costs. Just buy some and try it again.

No no, it doens't matter if

No no, it doesn't matter if the loot covers it and then you have 15% profit left or whatever, it's the time you put into it and the opportunity costs that you lose from it, whether it's getting further to upgrading or moving on to the next gear, or doing what you want to do on your own time, or sparing some for studying, or improving your portfolio, maybe even a programming project(i.e. sk), or playing that XBox Live Gold with the new system your friend got you, which is happening to me, I have yet to even play online with him because of the Spiral addiction(and the opportunity cost of not using mist energy), and it's already 2 1/2 weeks in that I haven't used the free membership. Whatever, not a huge loss, but I will have some aggravated neglected friends. Yes I am cheap and don't have a job to pay for a year's membership, hell, the best friend who bought and mailed me the system along with games and MS points, with that money spent is using someone else's account and feels bad for it, but I understand it, he doesn't have a job either, it's not his fault.

Ugh, it's a bug that shouldn't go unreported and happen to others and repeated. Time isn't a factor for some people for some reason, and it's hard to compensate, but to not fix the bug is just downright bull. If there was a bug in the middle of the tier somewhere before you could get further and get more crowns, you couldn't say that you could compensate with the loot you have. A bug is a bug, and besides I didn't get bark modules out of it, which is the goal. I could've had the bark modules and then still have the loot, do you understand the loss?

And you assumed I went solo. And you made the judgment call like a developer would and say I have a low chance of winning the twins, therefore I should not be compensated on some energy or bark modules(which I know I will not get the full 3), or that I am in the slim chance of losing, even though I'm prepared to cure shocks and heal, maybe even rebuy energy to revive. This depth takes more than an hour since you have to wait for the cycles. Sometimes you need a break from the tedium.

I have never had a problem with good console games where I got stuck and could never progress. It just can't happen in the final release, if there was, there'd be some recalls, and I'm talking about good games, not games like action 52 with low profile companies that hasn't produced a single good game.

Anyways, it's time for another ignore the person that needs help thread, and let time calm him down and so we can forget this problem ever happened with no compensation.

1) You didn't lose any CE,

1) You didn't lose any CE, since you broke even
2) The only thing you lost was time; playing a video game
3) You now rightfully demand 80CE (roughly 1.5$; you're quite cheap) for the hour you spent playing a game, and god forgive, got stuck in due to a bug rare bug.

Please kind sir, would you please play Fallout 3? I'd love to see Bethesda getting a demand in their inbox with a rather large bank figure, since that corrupted save file meant you lost tons of working hours.

Goddman bra, I lost at the

Goddman bra, I lost at the arena, and I can't revive for the 3rd time costing 20 ce. Crap, I quit for tonight at 7:30pm. Real early for me, crap, man, so much more to go, and so much invites to forgo. Man, going through this again is like studying too much with diminishing returns. Oh man, I only have 4 bark modules, and no, I am not close to 15 if that's what you're thinking, I think that's part of the reason you think it doesn't matter, but I have such a long way to go. Oh man, so tired of playing this dungeon even though I think it cause you to fight more intelligently or to time the switches well vs Jelly King. I just want to get up to the Gravitron Vortex, but am only at star 3. I got like 6 or so more equipment to start on before I feel like joining my friends and guild, and not neglect as much as I have. Oh man, jesus, why did I register the XBox Gold Live free month subscription impulsively early.

Thanks for the help.

Thanks for the help. Just focus on the original question of how you can fix the bug problem, don't get mad that I'm hating on this part of the game, hate when the mob comes after you for pointing out a flaw in this game.

"The battery in my car is

"The battery in my car is dead!"
"park on a hill and pop the clutch, duh lrn2drive n00b"

yet, no interest in how the problem can be fixed.

it seems that pathing and lag are the problems that really stand out in this game. Lag...well, when you're operating from the cloud with a game that demands a higher level of graphical and connection speed than I would expect for a "chibi" game it's what you get.

Pathing...I dunno. It looks like you got royally tooled there. I'm hoping OOO will get back to you on this, as it looks like you deserve a CE credit or something.

Too bad you can't patch rudeness.
